Problems from Philosophy is an introduction to philosophy organized
around the great philosophical problems the existence of God, the
nature of the mind, human freedom, the limits of knowledge, and the
truth about ethics. It begins by reflecting on the life of the
first great philosopher, Socrates. Then it takes up the fundamental
question of whether God exists. Next comes a discussion of death
and the soul, which leads to a chapter about persons. The later
chapters of the book are about whether objective knowledge is
possible in science and ethics. Each chapter is self-contained and
may be read independently of the others. Problems from Philosophy
represents the final work of author and philosopher James Rachels.
In it, he brings the same liveliness and clarity to the
introduction of philosophy that he brings to his best-selling
ethics text, The Elements of Moral Philosophy. The second and third
edition have been revised by Rachels' son Stuart, who carefully has
carefully refined his father's work to further strengthen its
clarity and accessibility.
